Fantastic Voyage: a Bowie Circus Cabaret @ Jacksons Lane
Jul 22 @ 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm

David Bowie loved the circus, and we love David Bowie.

Jacksons Lane pays its respects with a once-in-a-lifetime night of spectacular sound and vision that we think will blow your minds. Performers from across the globe come together to celebrate Ziggy, the Thin White Duke, and maybe even Jareth the Goblin King as they choose their favourite Bowie look and song for a night of spaceman-inspired circus that’s out of this world.

 

We have introduced a Pay What You Decide policy for Postcards Festival 2016shows.

You can attend the shows without paying for a ticket beforehand, but tickets can be reserved in advance (max 4 per booking). When the show finishes, you will have the opportunity to make a donation – either by cash on the door or card at the Box Office.

The Band @ Jacksons Lane
Mar 17 @ 8:00 pm – 9:00 pm

Sandy and Bruno met in the seventies. She was fame hungry, he was doomed to follow her. As one hit wonders, this is a story of their big come-back. With Sandy’s determination and Bruno’s blissful devotion to her, they are here; not by popular demand, but by sheer defiance. With striking aesthetics and a rousing soundtrack, The Band is a quirky, humorous display of desperate ambition and blind affection.

Taival @ Jacksons Lane
Apr 18 @ 8:00 pm – 9:00 pm

Making its UK premiere as part of our Sirkus Finnish showcase, Taival blends contemporary dance, circus and visual theatre to paint a bold and blistering portrait of the human body. The multi-disciplined, hyper-talented cast explore themes of control, manipulation, beauty and pain, using light and sound to manipulate the barrier between artist and audience. A physical, versatile, vibrant piece of contemporary circus.
